Well, one way is to look for pkgdep lines without arguments:

  cd /var/db/pkg
  find . -mindepth 2 -maxdepth 2 -type f -print0 | xargs -0 egrep -e 'pkgdep[[:space:]]*$'

If this doesn't work, you can always run pkg_info for all your packages:

  cd /var/db/pkg
  for i in */; do pkg_info "$i" 2>&1 >/dev/null | sed -e "s@^@$i "; done

Hope that helps.

G'luck,
Peter
